A Plan that Didn,t work.

One druggist had an automatic chestnut
register on the door of the closet in which
he keeps the poisonous stuff" Of his
stock, and It rings every time the closet is
opened to take anything from it. The
tingle of the bell was for the purpose of
awakening the clerk to the responsibility
of his actions.
It didn't work.
81 thought It a good plan, I" the druggist
said, as he asked the reporter If he ever
smoked, shut this was how it worked: A
fellow came rushing in here one night
with prescription for his wife, and, like
every person under similar circumstances
of excitement, he must tell me all about
her dangerous condition.
'Great Scott! What's that?" he asked,
as the bell on the door of my poison closet
rang. AS he was too excited to be telling
q story, he didn't understand why tho
bell rang, and looked at me suspiciously.
Bell of the poison closet replied.
Putting poison in my wife's medi-
ciner he exclaimed. We'll, 1 suppose it's
all right, but l tell you, as told the doc
tor, that my wife is one of those women
Heavensi there's that bell again. Moro
poison? Look here, amt you making
some mistake, putting so much poison in
my wife's medicine? No? Well, don't
know about that. Here, give me the pre-
scription. guess I'd better see the doctor
about it, don't want my wife poisoned
.'Therc were so many occurrences like
that" the druggist concluded, ''that we
had to do away with the little scheme.
However, you may say that all druggists
arc exceedingly careful, and it's very rare
that errors are made. You know, no
man is infallible. "-Cincinnati CONNER

der and indignation that they should be
there, until at last the world seems to
narrow itself down to some dozen or two

Garibaldi.s Herculean strength.

After Gordon Garibaldi was my most
famous acquaintance. What impressed
me most about him was the immense tri-
ceps, or shoulder muscles, he had. They
were lust like two half coccanuts sticking
I'D underneath his white Mexican mantle.
From Ueenan and Morrissey to Mace
(Sayers had remarkably small arm 1
never saw anything like ii. 1t would
have made two of theirs. And the sabcr
he used! Two of the Life guards blades
forged into one would have just made it.
Many time have seen that awful saber
sweeping right, left, right, left, like clock
work, as he moved down the enemy like
grass, seated on his old white charger,
leaving "a lane" that Is the only world
for us who followed him closely. "Avanti!
Avanti!" rang from his lips all the while,
and his trumpet voice rose high above the
loudest artillery fire. His strength was
simply herculean, and was only surpassed
by Gen. Dunno.
As an instance of Garibaldi's enormous
strength, remember late one night leav-
ing the Cafe iii Europa, in Naples, with
some brother officers and seeing the gen
cral passing on foot, with only one at
tcndant. We followed him as he was go
ing toward an unlighted and dangerous
part of the city, which swarmed with Bor-
boni-eX-so sbirri, lazzarOni in the
pay of Francis III. He was going to visit
one of his dying soldiers, a boy of severn
teen. We had not long to wait. Like
lightning two men sprang at him, right
and left, simultaneously, knife in hand.
Ere their blades, raised to strike, could
fall, Garibaldi had each one by the throat,
raised high in air To the full extent of his
arms. lie then knocked them together
two or three times and let them drop on
the stones. You may guess that our
swords were out. But no! The great
hero said: leave them alone; the poor
fools have had their lesson. Pail Mall

A Study OF "Star Routes"

All the routes wherein the mails arc not
carried by either railroads or steamboats,
are known as star routes, because they
are marked in the official records with u
star. \ study of star routes could be
made with profit. There is a star route
in Idaho wherein a dog is made to serve
~ n mail carrier. a portion of the route
over the mountains is impossible in win
ter, and the contractors st. Bernard dog
has been trained to make the trip at such
times. The distance is little more than
ten miles, and it has to be traversed once
every second day, and doggy is always on
time. Down in Texas there is star route
ninety-iive miles long across the plains,
on which there is daily service, although
hut two small settlements are served
The route extends from Poisedio to Ala
mcto and Fort Davis.
Another star route across the plains i'm
Texas over which daily service is made is
the route from Tayati to SarugOra and
Fort Stockton, distance seventy five miles
The purpose of these two routes is to get
the mails daily TO the forts, and the
service costs many thousands of dollars
more than the revenues amount to, they
being insignificant. it is such expensive
but necessary routes Us these that draw
on the great excuses of revenues above
expenditure Of the large offices of the
ountry.-Cincinnati Times-Star.
